In English

Icelander Hildur Guðnadóttir is a musician and composer who constantly finds herself involved in the hottest artistic development projects around. Pan Sonic, Throbbing Gristle, múm, Jóhann Jóhannsson and The Knife are just some of the artists she has worked with. At this year's MADE, we will have the honour of listening to her very own, newly composed material.

As a key member of the think-tank, record company and artistic collective Kitchen Motors, Guðnadóttir represents much of the expanding and trail-blazing art scene currently thriving in Iceland.

She has done everything from composing chamber music to writing pieces for the stage and screen. In her solo project, Guðnadóttir develops an atmospheric and experimental sound where she also makes use of her voice. Since 2006, Guðnadóttir has released three solo albums in which she gives her creativity free rein. Now, finally, we get to hear her play live in Umeå!
